LASIK Eye Surgery Manhattan

Have you contemplated LASIK Eye Surgery but don't know of a surgeon to turn to? Dr. Mark Hornfeld of Vista Laser Vision in Manhattan has the equipment and knowledge to improve your vision and minimize your reliance on glasses or contact lenses. If you're a candidate for LASIK, Dr. Hornfeld will provide you with a thorough eye exam and then take the necessary steps. If your refractive error falls outside acceptable guidelines, it may not be possible for you to have LASIK. However, there are other types of refractive surgery that may be in your future and Dr. Hornfeld will be happy to discuss these options with you.

LASIK consists of three simple steps that take less than a minute each. The first step is to use an instrument known as a microkeratome, which is used to create a small protective flap of corneal tissue that is gently lifted back. Then the excimer laser applies a cool beam of light that reshapes the cornea. With this being done, images can be more focused on the retina, which allows for shaper vision. Then the corneal tissue is placed back into its original position where it seals naturally and it's as simple as that, practically over before it%u2019s even started.

- CustomVue (Wavefront)
